Awakening to Deliverance Power 0:02 We wanna honor God because he sees everything.0:10 You were born with a plan and a purpose. He's the god of all things possible. He's the god of all0:22 miracles.0:54 Welcome to Grace Grace with Naina and Michelle.0:56 I'm Michelle Humphreys. And I am Naina Keegan. Welcome to our broadcast today. We are here live in Nashville, Tennessee at NRV, which is the largest gathering of Christian communicators1:08 in the world, and we have an amazing guest with us today. Michelle, you wanna do the honors?1:12 Yes. We are so thrilled to have a Holy Ghost filled man, Pastor Greg Locke. He has an amazing church called Global1:24 Vision Bible Church. He has a, film called Come Out in Jesus' Name. Need I Say More? Welcome.1:32 Thank you1:33 so much for1:34 having me.1:34 We are thrilled to have you.1:35 I'm thrilled to be here.1:36 It's such an honor. I, you know, I I love his preaching, and he is the real deal. And he has this list of decrees that you made for 201:48 26 that I've been sharing with my bible group and all and it they're just so amazing because you said if we say those every day by the end of the year Yes. You're believing for big things. You know,1:59 death and life in the power of the tongue. Proverbs 18 20 and 21. And so you can either speak life over yourself and others or you can speak destruction, discouragement, and death over yourself. The bible says that David2:09 encouraged himself in the lord. Amen. So if nobody else is gonna encourage you, encourage yourself. Speak the word over yourself.2:15 I I love that. David said, soul, why are you downcast?2:19 Yeah.2:19 He spoke to his own soul. Amen. I love that.2:23 Amen. So oh, go ahead. So you have this, your book, Cast It Out.2:28 Yes.2:29 And I love the story behind that. I don't know if you wanna touch on that a little bit Yeah. Because it's so it was so powerful how the Lord led you to that. Yeah.2:37 You know, we were in cessationism for a lot of years, and so we did not believe in any of the gifts. Not prophetic. Deliverance to me was a Burt Reynolds movie, right, in the seventies. I had no idea what deliverance2:49 was. I had heard about it. And it's interesting because even in our ministry for years, you you know, we had a shirt that said, demons still flee at the name of Jesus. Great. And, you know, it was a great shirt, but I3:00 didn't believe it because I was still a cessationist. So if I'd have seen a demon flee, I'd have went crazy.3:04 I wouldn't have known what to do with it.3:06 And so about 20 17, the Lord began to, show me that the gifts had not ceased. 20 18, things began to happen in our church. God began to embarrass me out of my bad theology. He began to heal3:18 people in our services And I had preached against that for years. Oh, it didn't happen like that. And, you know, somebody would roll up with a wheelchair and get up and start walking during the invitation. And it really3:27 kind of boggled my mind. I didn't understand how is God doing this when I've been taught passionately that this does not happen happen any longer. So long story short, you know, we kept our church open during COVID3:39 and so we exploded. You know, we went from a few hundred to a few thousand literally almost overnight. And it was during that time that all these different groups of people came in because of my politics and3:51 because of my boldness, but little did I know that God was gonna use all those crowds to really teach me, hey, I've got something that's not about politics. This is about the supernatural.4:01 Right. Amen.4:02 And so the more I began to preach on it, we had a young lady manifest a demon during a baptismal celebration. And it didn't turn out to be much of a celebration because I'm like, oh my goodness. What is this? And I knew4:13 what it was, but I was afraid my Baptist friends were watching the live stream right now. I'm like, oh man, I'm going to lose all my meetings and all our support. And, again, long story short, when that girl wouldn't go4:24 in the water, her grandmother did but she wouldn't go in the water. She was hissing and growling, screaming her eyes, you know, dilated And I was like, this is supernatural. This is demonic. There's no way this 8 year4:34 old girl has this much strength. So they took her out. My wife went to go look for her, couldn't find her. And that night, it changed our our marriage, our church changed everything. And she's like, what's wrong with us?4:46 She's like, how in the world can we pastor a big church? We have millions of followers and we don't have enough authority to to set a girl free that's 8 years old. What's wrong with us? To me, she looked like she was,4:56 you know, 10 foot tall and bulletproof. I mean, I was I'd never been that overcome with fear in a service. I was like, this is a supernatural, otherworldly thing. So that started us on a journey secretly for 35:08 months. We found out about Derek Prince, Win Worley, you know, John Ramirez, all those type of people who started reading, studying. I fasted. And I got up on a Wednesday night and said, you know what? I'm gonna I'm5:18 gonna wing it. I said, I'm gonna preach a couple of weeks series on deliverance from demons. And when I said that our church went crazy, I thought they'd get up and walk out. And I mean, they clapped and whistled and,5:29 you know, was running around and it showed me that God had prepared the hearts of the congregation before he even had me as the shepherd. He was before you. Yep. So when I was ready, they were sitting on go. They were5:41 sitting on green light. And so we mashed the gas that night, and I preached 40 weeks5:47 on Deliverance from Demons. Weeks.5:48 And the world just started showing up at our doorstep. And then the movie and the books and all5:52 that. Crazy. Desperate.5:54 Oh, they're absolutely desperate.5:55 The the power5:57 Yes.5:57 Of God Yes. And all you did was simply believe. And all6:01 you gotta do is stand on the authority of the name of Jesus and it just happens. You know, demons know you have authority. They just hope you don't know it.6:07 Yes. Yes. Exactly. Because6:07 once you know it, you don't need me with a microphone.6:09 You want the believer's authority. I mean, I always say everything in that bible is true for me. I get that. I get to have that. Jesus said it, and we don't have to go around looking for Jesus.6:21 Yeah. He's interceding for us. He lives, you know, the holy spirit with us. He said greater things. Will we do? But we need to believe that and know that. And we always said, you know, the devil knows Jesus. Yes. He6:33 knows he's real.6:33 Yep.6:33 He just doesn't want us to believe in the power.6:36 At all.6:36 And he think we have no power and that we should be afraid of him.6:40 Yes.6:40 We you know, we need to be fearless. And so do you have some favorite stories about some of the deliverances or some of the things that have happened?6:47 You know, we have literally, if I'm honest, there is very little that we have not seen in deliverance ministry. Only because, number 1, you know, we were kind of privileged to kind of, kind of resurrect it a little bit,Global Deliverance Revivals Ignite 6:59 right, to kind of make it the spearhead of what's going on in the body. It should have never went anywhere. It's the ministry of Jesus. You know, Acts 10 38, Jesus went about doing good by the power of the Holy Spirit,7:08 laying his hands upon everyone that was oppressed of the devil and healed them. Yeah. So even the healing ministry of Jesus was a direct result of his deliverance ministry. Yeah. So some people are like, oh, I need7:17 healing. And I'm like, no. You don't need healing. You need deliverance from what made you sick. Amen. What cursed you to begin with. Right? Not in every case because not everything's a demon. But because our church grew7:28 so fast and because of the movie, I mean, we were in 2000 theaters and deliverance was breaking out live all over the world at this particular time. And I'm like, this is this is fantastical, You know? And I had no idea7:39 that it was going on because I'm preaching to it literally a camera while they're running a live stream crew through 2000 theaters and, you know, witchcraft is breaking off of people, love throwing up in popcorn buckets.7:50 And so, you know, every I mean, even today and yesterday, I've heard probably a dozen stories of people that were delivered, not in a church, but in a movie theater.7:59 You know,7:59 when when when Jesus gets kicked out of the church, he goes to the movies. And that's what the Holy Spirit did and it became this massive revival. We were the attended movie for a 1 night release. We beat we beat like8:11 a a Marvel movie. You know, it was unbelievable. So then a month later, they put it out again. 2 months later, they put it out again.8:17 That's because Jesus is super hero.8:19 Every time they put it out, they lessened the number of theaters because they were like, y'all wrecked this place. They're pulling the seats out of this place. They're kicking trash cans. They're going till 2 o'clock in8:29 the morning. And so from that, you know, I began to take it on the road. And so now everywhere I go, people like and I don't always go to do deliverance, but people expect that. And so now I've seen some of the most8:40 fantastical things in the Philippines and, you know, Colombia and just places all around the world. Israel.8:45 Oh, my goodness.8:46 It's unbelievable. I was preaching a national conference in Jerusalem. You don't expect people to talk about deliverance in Jerusalem. And in the middle of the message, I was I was preaching on the power of the Holy8:56 Spirit. And in the middle of the message, demons began to manifest in Jerusalem. And I mean, they said, do something about this. And so I was able to walk through and demonstrate deliverance in9:08 a in a ministry conference in Jerusalem. And then all of a sudden it opened up more doors and people said, hey, would you come to the Galilee because we've not seen deliverance since the days of Jesus. Would you come9:19 teach us deliverance? And so now I'm going to where Jesus cast out the first demon and, same demons, they're pretty territorial, you know. Exactly. I might be 1 of the same ones.9:29 Your steps are ordered of the Lord. Yes.9:31 And think9:31 about it. But you had to say yes. Yeah. I did. You went with your wife and just read and studied and prepared. And because, you know, if God takes you to it, he takes you through it. Yes. He'll make it but9:43 look what you're yes.9:44 Look at the people9:45 who have been set free, delivered Yes. From all kinds of and you know what? They didn't know Right. To go home to get their family delivered. It's exponential.9:54 Absolutely. It's been global. I mean, it literally has been a global revival.9:57 Well, glory to God It did.9:59 All of that.9:59 That's so such an an amazing story. So how has that been for, like, your family and, you know, because Yeah.10:05 And your Baptist friends. Yeah. You still have your Baptist friends.10:10 It's interesting because when when I first, you know, experienced baptism of the Holy Spirit, began to preach on the gifts, a lot of my Baptist friends were out. But when the demon started, they were, like, super out.10:19 Out. But it's interesting, we've really come full circle because the spiritual realm is so stirred up right now in America10:27 It is.10:27 And in our country and around the world, in our neighborhoods. Then now my Baptist friends are calling me saying, you know what? Maybe you're not as kooky as we thought. We've got some stuff going on in our church that10:37 we think you had the answer for. So now I'm going to Baptist churches saying, okay, here's what the Bible says about deliverance and demons. And so people are starting to get it.10:45 You know, everybody had their tinfoil hats on when it came to that. Right? It was10:49 all Absolutely.10:50 But now, if you look at the world, I mean, honestly, everything good is evil, everything evil is good. We're standing in the book of Revelations, you know, where it's just it's not a Democrat, Republican, right left. It11:01 is Christ anti Christ Yeah. What's happening in this world. And so and and then the whole in the end Yes. Many will fall away and even the elect will be deceived. And so we are seeing churches11:12 fall. He's coming to judge the church first. And so, you know, that even the Baptist friends are coming back Yeah. Because you know what? They're saying, okay. Why why you don't get to cherry pick the bible.11:23 No. You do not. You do. And and people wanna cherry pick the bible. Yes. And the bible says in the last days, it'll be the church, not the world, that follows demonic doctrines. Doctrines of demons. They'll be seduced by11:34 spirits. Right? Not by people, by spirits within people. And the pulpit is 1 of the most seduced places on the planet.11:41 Yes.11:41 Because, you know, these pastors, well, you know, Christians can't struggle with demons. I always tell them your demon told me that. You've got a religious spirit, buddy. You you need to have the thing cast out of you.11:50 Right? And so it is an absolute fact that the church has been stripped of its authority and now we're just meek and mild and soft.11:58 We go along with everything.12:00 The devil doesn't care about your denomination.12:02 Right. Exactly.12:03 He didn't12:03 care. Tell us what doctrines of demons you see Yeah. In the church.Doctrines of Demons and Deadly Words 12:09 You know what's interesting? This will be this will be hot. This will be a hot hot moment right here. The number 1 doctrine of demons is replacement theology that Israel is no longer the people of God. That is because of12:20 such an unbelievable demonic doctrine. Because now, because of the podcasters of the world that used to be super conservative, at least pretended to be for some time. Right? They have to name12:31 their name.12:32 In. Yeah. The church has bought into that. Yeah. And now it's not the world that hates you for sending for Israel. It's the church that hates you presenting for Israel. And I think that has been the beginning of 1 of the12:42 major demonic doctrines.12:43 Yeah. I agree.12:44 And then you and, yeah, I've heard, 1 of your sermons talking about as you're talking about the podcasters, like, the influencers and how that's talk about that because people want this influence12:56 over the power of God. They care more about12:58 Yes.12:58 How many people are watching and being famous instead of making Jesus famous.13:03 Yeah. You know, likes and blue check marks has ruined a lot of people's credibility because they're just chasing fame. And so when they get it, even if they get it in a wrong way by saying something foolish, they don't13:14 care. They will now speak, you know, like to the applause of people. You know, they become nothing more than dancing circus animals. They're doing whatever is going to feed their family, put more13:26 money on the table, and they're they're for sale. They're absolutely for sale. Yeah. But when you get a guy like me or, you know, a ministry like you guys, people that aren't for sale become dangerous. Oh, this guy, he13:36 he speaks too bold. No. You're just mad because I didn't sell out. I got a backbone. I'm still saying what needs to be said because I'm playing to an audience of 1, and I don't care if you like me or not.13:45 Amen. Amen. That's what we said to go. People are gonna love you and people are gonna hate you and it's got nothing to do with you. Absolutely.13:51 You know, I don't care. Jesus said beware when all13:53 men speak13:54 well of you. Yeah. If if people don't unfriend you on Facebook, you're not doing it right. You're not doing it right. Right? Jesus would have had a very small following on Facebook.14:02 That would14:02 have took away his blue check mark.14:03 Yeah. It got kicked off of so many platforms. They're saying it goes against community standards. Yeah. It's scriptures. Absolutely. And so we don't care.14:12 That when you have to start your own TV station, you know you're saying something right because people don't wanna hear it.14:17 Yeah. Exactly.14:17 But god honors us still for saying it.14:19 Yeah. Now you talking about saying it. You are really preaching about the power of life and death are in the tongue. Talk about that.14:27 I had just come, matter of fact, last night I preached our eighth week on, the power, the weight of our words. Last night, interestingly enough for a guy that used to be a cessationist, I transitioned from words to the14:38 word of faith because if you're going to speak the words, you got to believe the words, right? Yes. Without faith, it's impossible to please God, Hebrews eleven:six. And so I've been talking about death and life, death14:46 and life, death and life in the power of the tongue. Amen. And there are people that they say silly things. I'm always gonna be broke. God's never gonna use me. I'm always a failure. I'm never gonna find love. You're14:55 exactly right because you spoke that nonsense over your life. And people are like, well, you know, that just sounds like the the power of positive thinking. As opposed to what? The power of negative thinking? If you take15:06 2 plants if if you speak to a plant negatively, it is scientifically proven that that plant will die. But if you speak to a plant positive, you encourage it, oh, you're a beautiful plant. You're gonna you're gonna15:18 bear fruit. It'll grow. Jesus cursed a fig tree Yes. And it died. If it works for plants, it'll work for your kids. Yeah. You you call your kid a loser, they'll go up to be a loser because you spoke that death over them.15:29 But if you speak life and success and power and 1 of the things well, you could get me on this for a while. We could go longer than 30 minutes.15:35 I love that though.15:36 But 1 of the things that really cranked my motor is in Leviticus, the bible says the judgment of God will come upon you if you curse the deaf. Here's what's interesting. If you curse a deaf person, they15:48 can't hear you. They're deaf. But the power of your words, even if they're deaf, still affects their life. They don't even have to receive it. You just have to say it because your words are16:00 not sounds, they're seeds. And every time you open your mouth, you're planting something.16:04 Yeah. You're16:05 planting something. And it's either gonna grow good or it's gonna grow bad. But it's gonna grow. Yeah. It's gonna grow. God forgives sins, but he doesn't relieve consequences. You'll still have to meet the words that you16:14 spoke.16:14 And even with gossip, you know, how tempting16:17 Yes.16:17 You know, those choice little morsels that the bible talks about. Yeah. Because that's the thing you can say, you know, like, we've seen where you oh, well, let's just pray for them because this, this, this, and this.16:27 And they use the guys of They16:28 they use a prayer request to to shroud their slander. Yeah. Oh, did you hear about so and so? We need to pray for them. No. And I don't want16:35 to. Hard. Yes. Yeah. Bless their heart. Yeah. Yeah.16:37 It was16:37 a little hard.16:38 They speak in Christianese.16:39 Yeah. Christianese. Yes. Yeah. And the church is full of Christianese.16:42 Exactly. And we16:43 need to do away with that stuff. And listen. People know, I've even gone on a journey where I've gone back to pastors and preachers that I've called out through the years, and I've gone back and humbled myself and said I16:53 was wrong. I should have never put my mouth on you. You carry a different anointing than me, but that doesn't mean you don't carry 1.16:59 Right? Touch my my my anointing. Yep. You know, my anointing.17:02 That's it. And so17:03 That that's the thing. We're not to judge. Like, who are we. Right? Because we're all as filthy rags. Right? We're just17:09 Everybody has an exposure ministry. You know, the problem is you just ain't got caught yet. Yeah. Well, the and17:15 Don't you think that the Lord is calling us to a higher level? Yes. She's coming back for a church without spot or wrinkle. So everything we do Yes. Speech or otherwise has to go before the Lord.17:27 Every bit of You don't even know we have to preach enough hard stuff.17:30 Yes.17:31 I preach on hail hot. I preach on repentance.17:33 Yes. Preach it. You17:34 know, we preach on revival. And so I have to preach enough hard stuff. Why not fill the auditorium with blessings? Why not speak Amen. Kindness over people and love? Amen. I mean, I think that's what the real prophetic17:43 is. We think it's all, you know, stabbing people in the face with the bible. But at the end of the day, you can do that and still love people. Because if I can get you to laugh now, I can stick you later. We17:52 can still17:53 be friends.17:53 Right? Well, and kindness can break a bone. Yes.17:55 So17:55 that that you know, and I we always love, like, you know, your enemies, you know, if you bless them with heaping the coals, like, sometimes you just really want18:02 that Yeah.18:02 Heaping the coals. But if you keep, you know, you know that if you stay in that place, you know, just because you're gonna be judged for that.18:10 Yeah.18:10 And so, you know, I have the a very Catholic upbringing Yeah. Childhood where I was, you know, scared to death of God. I thought he was mad.18:14 Childhood where I was, you18:14 know, scared to death of God. I thought he was mad at me all the time. So some of that comes in handy when I I have the fear of the Lord for real.18:21 Yep.18:21 You know? And so we just we just keep going and we don't care. Amen. Because this is go time.Show more In this video 0:00 Awakening to Deliverance Power6:49 Global Deliverance Revivals Ignite12:06 Doctrines of Demons and Deadly Words18:25 End-Times Call to Bold Gospel PreachingComments No comments yet.
